    I have a Dell inspiron E1405 and the headphone jack was broken off the motherboard. I either need to get a replacement jack or figure out what solder points to jump in order to get the speakers to work. Here is a picture of the motherboard and the solder points.


    Does anyone know what solder points to connect in order to get the speakers to work on the computer. Or does anyone know where to get a replacement jack?

    Thanks!

    Dave W came up with the solution. You connect pins 1 and 4.
